I'm an indie dev, solo, no team, just me and my app. I was prepping a new release and decided to try AppDrift to handle my ASO metadata and translations. Honestly the AI generation was fast, titles and keywords done in under a minute, exactly what the site promises. But then I hit something weird. I selected like 12 languages for translation and most of them came back fine, but two of them, Japanese and Arabic, had character counts that were clearly over the App Store limit for the subtitle field. The UI showed them as valid with no warning, green checkmarks and everything. I only caught it because I manually cross-checked before publishing. If I had pushed that directly to the store without noticing, Apple would've rejected the update. For a solo dev that's a lost week minimum. I flagged it to the team and they were super responsive, which I appreciated. But the whole point of the rejection checker is to catch exactly this kind of thing before it costs you time, so having that gap in the translation flow was a bit ironic. Would love to see character limit validation run automatically after every AI translation, not just in the standalone checker tool.
